William Harlan Mattox

Although it has been 10 years since Will has been gone, I still think of him often. So many of his wise, encouraging words come to mind when I need them the most. Continue to rest in peace, Will. You bring me peace in life.

Please accept my sincerest condolences. I was so saddened to learn of Will's passing when I read it in the Register-Guard. It brought back a flood of memories when I taught Eliza and Beth out at Territorial Elementary. Will came to our class and carved a ginormous pumpkin to look just like me. I remember we were all mezmerized. I bet Beth and Eliza weren't as they knew how talented and gifted their dad was. I am so very sorry for your loss. May your memories buoy you and God grant you...

I was saddened to hear of Wills death. I worked for him for about 13 years. Lots of memories of Virginis and the children. My thought and prayers are with you all. I know some of your pain, lost my husband 3 months ago. Much love and prayers are going your way.

A very dear friend of mine. I last spoke to him over the past six months. We didn't talk for long, but by what Will did say I new that Will had been living his life the way I knew he would. My favourite memory /quoat he ever told me was "it is what is, Kristine". It has come to be so many times in my life. As I too have been fighting cancer again for the past five months and yet we both didn't know of each others illness. His own words of the past have helped me through each day. My heart...

So shocked to hear of Will's death. I thought he'd live forever. He will in my thoughts. He was an Amazing artist, boss, mentor and friend. He had a big impact on my life. I still tell everyone "You can only do what your can do".
